Trimble AllTrak Cloud v2.9

New Features and Improvements in Version 2.9

Asset Template - Attachments

Attachments can now be uploaded to an Asset Template. Go to the Templates page and create or edit and Asset Template. In the popup, there is now an option to upload attachments. Attachments must be less than 10MB.

Select an asset in the Asset Grid on either the Location or Asset Page and any files that have been attached to the Asset Template associated with the selected asset will be visible in the Asset Side Panel. There is an Attachments card in the panel that will display both attachments to the individual asset and attachments to the associated Asset Template. Files can be downloaded from the Side Panel.

Transfer Decimal Quantity of Consumables

AllTrak Cloud now allows the transfer of decimal quantities of a consumable. If a consumable is purchased in bulk volumes (i.e. ton, case), it is now possible to transfer a portion of the unit. For example, If there are 10 tons of a 4-foot roll of sheet metal in the warehouse, a quantity of 0.125 (1/8th of a ton) can be transferred to another location. Or, if you have a case of an item that contains 100 items per case it is possible to transfer 0.3 of the case to another location. A quantity of up to 3 decimal places may be entered as the quantity to be transferred.

It is recommended that the Units field is used appropriately to represent the consumable quantity. The system sees a consumable unit of Each or Case as the same, so it is possible to transfer .5 or an Each item or .5 of a Case item. Representative values in the Unit field for a consumable is important.

Add, Complete and Edit Asset Services

Administrator Deletion of Assets that have been Transferred

An Administrator now has the ability to delete assets that have been transferred. Please note that deleting assets cannot be undone, so this feature should be used with caution.

To enable this capability, the feature must be enabled in Company Settings.

On the General Settings tab of the Company Settings Page select the icon to edit the settings.

Set the “Enable Admin users to delete assets that have been transferred” to Yes.

Selecting yes will enable individual assets to be deleted by an Administrator, even if the asset has been previously transferred.

When deleting a selected asset, the user will be informed that deleting an asset from the system cannot be undone and asked to confirm that they want to delete the selected asset.

If the asset has been previously transferred, the user will be informed that the asset was previously transferred “x” number of times and asked to confirm again.

Deleting Multiple Assets that have been Transferred

Selecting “Yes” to enable transfer to be deleted also exposes an option allow Administrators to delete multiple assets that have been transferred in a single operation

By default, the “Enable Asset Bulk Deletion after being transferred” setting is set to 0.

The value sets the maximum number of times and asset can have been transferred and still be deleted by a bulk deleting operation.

Setting the value to 1 means only assets that have been transferred just once or never transferred can be deleted by a bulk operation.

To bulk delete assets, select the assets to be deleted in the Asset Grid on either the Location or Asset Page

The user will be informed that deleting assets from the system cannot be undone and asked to confirm that they want to delete the selected asset.

If any of the selected assets have been transferred, the user will be informed that some of the selected assets have been transferred and asked to confirm again.

When proceeding, if any of the selected assets have been transferred more than the number set in the Bulk Deletion setup on the Company Settings page, the user will be informed which assets could not be deleted.

Friendly Name for Commodities and Consumables

The Friendly Name field that was previously only available for Unique Assets, is now available for Commodities and Consumables.
